Relationship between coaching climates and student-athletes’ symptoms of burnout in school and sports

2020

The purpose of the present study was to investigate (a) what kind of coaching climates experienced by student-athletes can be found in sports high schools in Finland and (b) how these coaching climates are related to student-athletes’ symptoms of burnout in sports and in school. A total of 414 student-athletes, aged 17–18 years, from 7 sports high schools participated in this study. In addition to background information, the participants completed questionnaires concerning the perceived coaching climate and symptoms of burnout in both school and sports environments. By using latent profile analysis, 4 groups of experienced coaching climates were identified: extremely disempowering, disempow…

The balancing act of combining school and football in the transition from a non-professional club into junior-elite academy football

2021

Football players in the transition from junior-to-senior are usually involved in dual careers, combining school and football – a process that makes them dependent on a holistic talent-development journey. The aim of the current study was to describe how male junior elite football players (N=10; 5=living at home, 5=living away from home) perceived stressors in the transition from a non-professional club into a junior elite academy. Furthermore, the school transition (between lower- and upper-secondary school) and social transition (based on the school and football transitions) as a consequence of the football transition into academy football. Based on Wylleman and Lavallee’s (2004) and Stamb…

Longitudinal Leisure Activity Profiles and Their Associations with Recovery Experiences and Job Performance

2017

We aimed to identify longitudinal leisure activity profiles among working adults and their links to recovery experiences and job performance. Leisure activities, recovery experiences, and job performance were investigated among 831 employees using survey data collected in spring 2013 (T1) and 2014 (T2). Through latent profile analysis (LPA), four stable longitudinal leisure activity profiles were identified. “Social Sports(wo)men” (46%) engaged in physical and social activities but rarely in creative or cultural activities. “Active Artists” (23%) pursued all leisure activities, particularly creative activities. “Socially & Culturally Inactives” (17%) exercised frequently but seldom engaged …

Maagiset hiukset ja valta Sofi Oksasen Normassa

2017

Tarkastelen Sofi Oksasen (2015) romaanissa Norma olevia maagisia hiuksia sekä niiden kytköksiä vallankäyttöön. Lähestyn valtaa teemana, joka ilmenee romaanin hiusmotiivin yhteydessä. Tutkimukseni teoriataustana toimii yhdistelmä feminististä ja psykoanalyyttista kirjallisuudentutkimusta, joiden lisäksi hyödynnän maagisen realismin lajiteoriaa sekä narratologiaa.

Testing the direct and moderator effects of the stressor-detachment model over one year : A latent change perspective

2018

ABSTRACTTo test the direct and moderator effects of the stressor–detachment model from a long-term perspective, we investigated whether workload and detachment are related to changes in exhaustion and sleep difficulties over one year. We also examined whether detachment attenuates the relationship between high workload and these outcomes both cross-sectionally and over time. Questionnaire data with 1722 respondents at Time 1 and 1182 respondents at Time 2 were collected. We used a latent change score approach to analyse the data in order to identify intra-individual change among the studied constructs. Our results showed that high workload and low detachment at baseline were related to an i…

Coupling of Action-Perception Brain Networks during Musical Pulse Processing: Evidence from Region-of-Interest-Based Independent Component Analysis

2017

Our sense of rhythm relies on orchestrated activity of several cerebral and cerebellar structures. Although functional connectivity studies have advanced our understanding of rhythm perception, this phenomenon has not been sufficiently studied as a function of musical training and beyond the General Linear Model (GLM) approach. Here, we studied pulse clarity processing during naturalistic music listening using a data-driven approach (independent component analysis; ICA). Participants’ (18 musicians and 18 controls) functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) responses were acquired while listening to music. A targeted region of interest (ROI) related to pulse clarity processing was defined…

Seksuaalisuus mielen rakentumisen ilmiönä : käsitteellinen tutkimus seksuaalisuutta koskevista psykoanalyyttisistä teorioista

2012

Pro graduni käsittelee kaikkiaan sitä, mitä seksuaalisuus on ja kuinka seksuaalisuudella on ratkaiseva merkitys mielen rakentumissa. Selvitän käsitteellisen tutkimuksen avulla kuinka seksuaalisuutta tulisi teoreettisesti ymmärtää ja jäsentää. Analysoin ja vertailen kolmen psykoanalyyttisen teoreetikon, Sigmund Freudin, Jean Laplanchen ja Ruth Steinin teorioita seksuaalisuudesta. Etsin heidän teorioistaan vastauksia keskeisiin kysymyksiin seksuaalisuuden olemuksesta, vauvan heräämisestä seksuaalisuuteen, seksuaalisuuden jäsentymisestä mieleen, kohteen valitsemisesta sekä seksuaalisuuden poikkeavuuksien syntymekanismeista. Selvitän miten teoreetikot kirjoituksissaan vastaavat kysymyksiin, mit…

Straightforward Regio- and Diastereoselective Synthesis, Molecular Structure, Intermolecular Interactions and Mechanistic Study of Spirooxindole-Engr…

2021

Straightforward regio- and diastereoselective synthesis of bi-spirooxindole-engrafted rhodanine analogs 5a–d were achieved by one-pot multicomponent [3 + 2] cycloaddition (32CA) reaction of stabilized azomethine ylide (AYs 3a–d) generated in situ by condensation of L-thioproline and 6-chloro-isatin with (E)-2-(5-(4-chlorobenzylidene)-2,4-dioxothiazolidin-3-yl)-N-(2-morpholinoethyl)acetamide. The bi-spirooxindole-engrafted rhodanine analogs were constructed with excellent diastereo- and regioselectivity along with high chemical yield. X-ray crystallographic investigations for hybrid 5a revealed the presence of four contiguous stereocenters related to C11, C12, C19 and C22 of the spiro struct…

Work-related stress of elementary school principals in Finland: Coping strategies and support

2021

The present study aimed to investigate elementary school principals’ self-reported causes of work-related stress, their coping strategies to deal with stress and the support they need for their leadership. Seventy-six principals filled in the questionnaire, which included open-ended questions. Qualitative content analysis was used to analyse the data. The results showed that the main sources of stress were workload, interpersonal conflicts, a lack of resources and internal pressures. Moreover, principals used emotion-focused, problem-focused and social coping to deal with stress. Additionally, principals reported a need for problem-focused support and social support for their leadership. T…
